Does anyone know how to convert dates that are in the form YYJJJ, (where YY= year and JJJ = Julian date) into something that Oracle likes, such as "MMDDYY"? Here's my challenge: I'm migrating mainframe legacy data into Oracle tables using SQL*Loader. The date field blows up on me, so I need to somehow convert it during the loading process.

Any advice is appreciated, thanks in advance.
